This contribution presents the design and sub-mm wave measurements of a wideband dual polarized leaky lens antenna coupled to kinetic inductance detector (KIDs) to be specifically used for tightly spaced focal plane arrays. The antenna is planar and composed by two crossed slots, fed by two orthogonal coplanar waveguide (CPW) lines. In transmission, the crossed CPW lines are fed differentially in...
This contribution presents the design of a dual polarized leaky lens antenna coupled to a Kinetic Inductance Detector (KID) in order to enable a broadband THz detector for future space applications. The designed antenna presents high aperture efficiency and clean symmetric patterns.
The design of focal planes of direct detectors for the characterization of radiometric distributed sources in the sub-mm wave regime is a problem of renewed interest for the scientific community. The important question is how to optimize the focal plane sampling or the focal plane feed elements for maximizing the acquisition speed. The key speed limitations for some popular feed solutions have been...
The performance of multibeam focal plane arrays feeding a single aperture is usually reduced due to conflicting requirements on the feed elements. Dense packing is usually required to minimize the beam separation, while typically large feed apertures are needed to provide the high feed directivity to reduce spillover losses from the reflector. In this paper the use of dielectric super-layers to shape...
